Gas Detection Systems
Most industrial gas detection systems are installed with the primary objective of keeping people safe at work or protecting a site against the risk of explosion or fire. Gas detectors are specified when there is a need to continuously monitor gases from a permanent location.
Each application has its own conditions and legal regulations. Subsequently, each site has its own requirements and challenges.

Fixed Gas Detectors
Fixed gas detectors, also known as "transmitters" or "gas sensor heads" are installed to protect personnel, detect hazardous gases or analyse the environment. The fixed gas detector detects the presence of a target gas and relays it back to a control panel.
Are You Compliant?
The Health & Safety Executive requires industrial sites to not exceed the EH40 workplace exposure limits (WELs).
Huge Library of Gases
a1-cbiss supply gas detectors that monitor a wide range of target gases including toxic, flammable, oxygen, and VOCs.
Is It Safe to Enter?
Safe entry systems indicate whether it’s safe for people to enter a room.
Single Point to Multipoint Systems
a1-cbiss have successfully delivered gas detection projects are installed on the UK’s largest industrial sites - manufacturing plants, food production, breweries, refineries.
Control the Environment
Gas detectors can activate extractor fans, turn off process supply lines or create an alarm to warn personnel of danger.
Quality Leading Brands
a1-cbiss work with the leading gas detection brands (Teledyne, Lumasense, Crowcon, Detronics to name a few) to engineer a system fit for our client’s needs.
Predictive Maintenance
Prevention is better than waiting for an accident to happen. a1-cbiss offer maintenance service contracts to suit your needs and budget
Gas Samplers
Our bespoke gas analyser systems deliver cost-effective solutions with high sensitivity, accuracy, and reliability.
Reduce Costs
a1-cbiss would recommend the installation of a sampling/sniffer system in applications where over 4 points of gas detection equipment is required to save the costs of placing individual gas sensors. This is made possible because the gas sensing element takes place within the system rather than installing a gas sensor at each fixed point of detection.
Easy to Service
If the properties of the gas mean that it needs to be detected at the highest point, in a difficult to reach place, or within a dangerous location, consider drawing the sample to a more convenient location. This simplifies service and calibration.
Gas Conditioning Required?
Are the sampling conditions out of the ordinary? Hot, wet or dusty conditions could damage the analyser therefore the gas sample needs to be conditioned prior to measurement.
Gas Analysis in Non-Safety Critical Environment
Gas analysers utilising infrared (IR) and photoacoustic technologies are used in research studies or field measurements for profiling the composition of multiple compounds from ppb and ppm level to percent level concentrations.
Flame Detectors
Fire or explosion causes catastrophic consequences as it rips through industrial environments. It is essential that high-risk operations install flame detectors that activate safety features as the risk of fire increases.
Control the Environment
Reliably signal alarms, control fire suppression systems and shutdown processes.
Reliable Flame Detector Performance
The Detronics brand of flame detectors protects your personnel, assets, and property.
Service
Benefit from frequent preventative maintenance site visits.
Large, regional service support network
Scheduled service and calibration visits per year
Guaranteed response time depending on your site requirements
Site allocated service engineer
Comprehensive stockists of critical spare parts and consumables
Dedicated office-based customer service advisor
Fully trained industry specialists on hand to provide full service, repair & calibration
Case Study - CO2 In Breweries
Learn about the hidden dangers of carbon dioxide (CO2) in breweries and the essential measures to ensure safety. Uncontrolled levels of CO2 can lead to severe health hazards, even suffocation, making proper monitoring absolutely crucial. Discover how the accumulation of CO2 during fermentation and storage processes can create hazardous pockets. Implementing a comprehensive gas detection system, including fixed CO2 sensors and personal detectors, is crucial to protect brewery personnel.
Case Study - a1-cbiss Engineer a Brewery Carbon Dioxide Monitoring System
Discover how a1-cbiss helped two major breweries in the UK ensure health and safety compliance with a tailored Carbon Dioxide monitoring system. With elevated CO₂ levels during fermentation, a1-cbiss designed a solution using advanced gas detection technology. The system provides visual warnings, integrates with ventilation systems, and offers real-time data acquisition and reporting.
